Six Sentence Sunday 1

Hey everyone! I've decided to try out something new. So, here's goes! These six sentences are when Adara see Rei in human form for the first time.

Her words and anger stuck in her throat as she realized a tiger no longer stood before her. The beast had been replaced by a man. A man with dark brown eyes and a sensual mouth. His large build shocked her. Her kind was tall, yet he towered over her. The sight of him stole her breath.

Jungle Heat now available from Changeling Press.

Weekly Wrap Up + Giveaway

Hey everyone! I hope you're all doing fantastic. This week I've been working on revising Hacked Investigations 2: Savage Bytes to turn into my editor. I'm pretty excited about this book since I love writing about Ian and Hannah.

Once I finished writing it, I suddenly had an idea for a free read and a possible related short story regarding one of my favorite secondary characters, Leon. *grins* I love it when that happens. Although, next I'll be working on The Amazon Chronicles 2: Jungle Fire, so I don't have time to work on the new exciting idea for a month or so. But I'll be ready!

In celebration of finishing up Savage Bytes and Jungle Heat's recent release, I'm going to do a giveaway of one (maybe two depending on how many comments I get) of your choice of either Techno Crazed or Jungle Heat if you leave a comment. You'll get one extra entry for each of the following, follow the blog, follow my Twitter @sarahmakela, and Tweet or Retweet. (Please let me know in the comment, if you do the extra entries.) I'll pick the winner(s) next Friday right here!

That said, I'll make sure to get my blogs posted in the mornings instead of the afternoons like I have been. Yeesh! It's easy to get sidetracked sometimes. lol

An appearance update: I'm going to have an interview with Marsha A Moore on August 4th for Jungle Heat's release. She asked some awesome questions, so I'll give the link for you all to check it out when I have it.

Okay, enough about me. What do you have planned for the weekend? Anything super exciting?

Ghosts and Haunted Houses

Hey everyone! Happy Hump Day! Yes, I'm posting an Into the Paranormal blog... Amazing, right? *grins* Just real quick, I did a blog post at Cathy Pegau's yesterday if you're interested in checking that out.

Now for the topic!

One of the shows I really enjoy watching is Ghost Adventures, even if it took an episode or two to warm up to (give it a chance, if you decide to watch it). They really do their research and show what's going on with the way they do their lockdowns and hold their cameras, etc. instead of certain other shows... ahem... But Ghost Adventures is on the Travel Channel if you want to check them out!

I've gone on ghost tours before, and I've read lots of books on ghosts and haunted houses. I even heard from others who have seen ghosts, even though I haven't. I think it'd be fascinating to see a ghost, but I'm not necessarily going to go out of my way to find one. I have been in haunted places, but I didn't really see anything.

Do I think there are spirits and ghosts? Sure, I think so. Would I want to stay overnight in a haunted house? It depends on if there are any malevolent ghosts. I'm not out to have nightmares or have something try to hurt me. *grins*

What about you? Have you seen a ghost or been in a haunted house? Would you want to?
